Nits

Lauren has a wicked case of head lice, and had been itching for a few days at Grandma’s before the penny dropped.  Sam has a mild case, and remains unconcerned (unlike the verucca that all his teachers had to know about).  Naturally from the moment we worked out what was causing her itching my scalp has felt like it has an insect army marching on it, but nothing has turned up so far.

(Incidentally, the relationship between lice and human evolution is well worth reading up on).
